在Python中,一类是指一个子类的子类,它决定一个子类的行为方式;在Python中,一类是另一个子类的例子;在Python中,一类是指一个子类的例子将如何行事。

由于甲基层负责类型,所以你可以写自己的自定义甲基层来改变类型是通过执行额外的操作或注射代码创建的方式。

使用金属玻璃代码的复杂性背后的原因不是由于金属玻璃,而是因为你通常使用金属玻璃来制作依赖于入观、操纵遗产、如 __dict__ 等的旋转物品。

有几个理由这样做:

為什麼要使用MetaClass?

现在,大问题:为什么你会使用一些模糊的错误漏洞功能?

如果你想知道你是否需要它们,你不会(真正需要它们的人肯定知道他们需要它们,不需要解释为什么)。

Python Guru 蒂姆·彼得斯

class Person(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    age = models.IntegerField()

person = Person(name='bob', age='35')
print(person.age)

最后一句话

首先,你知道,类是可以创造例子的物体。

>>> class Foo(object): pass
>>> id(Foo)
142630324

99%的时间你需要课堂变化,你更好地使用这些。

但98%的时间,你根本不需要课堂变化。

Metaclasses 是做“类”的工作的秘密酱油,新风格对象的默认 metaclass 被称为“类型”。

class type(object)
  |  type(object) -> the object's type
  |  type(name, bases, dict) -> a new type

Metaclasses 取 3 args. 'name', 'bases' 和 'dict'

查找这个例子类定义中的名称、基础和字符号来源于哪里。

class ThisIsTheName(Bases, Are, Here):
    All_the_code_here
    def doesIs(create, a):
        dict

def test_metaclass(name, bases, dict):
    print 'The Class Name is', name
    print 'The Class Bases are', bases
    print 'The dict has', len(dict), 'elems, the keys are', dict.keys()

    return "yellow"

class TestName(object, None, int, 1):
    __metaclass__ = test_metaclass
    foo = 1
    def baz(self, arr):
        pass

print 'TestName = ', repr(TestName)

# output => 
The Class Name is TestName
The Class Bases are (<type 'object'>, None, <type 'int'>, 1)
The dict has 4 elems, the keys are ['baz', '__module__', 'foo', '__metaclass__']
TestName =  'yellow'

现在,一个实际上意味着什么的例子,这将自动使列表中的变量“属性”设置在课堂上,并设置为无。

def init_attributes(name, bases, dict):
    if 'attributes' in dict:
        for attr in dict['attributes']:
            dict[attr] = None

    return type(name, bases, dict)

class Initialised(object):
    __metaclass__ = init_attributes
    attributes = ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']

print 'foo =>', Initialised.foo
# output=>
foo => None

请注意,启动者获得的魔法行为是通过拥有金属类的 init_属性而没有转移到启动者的子类。

这里是一个更具体的例子,显示如何可以创建一个在创建一个类时执行一个行动的甲型类的“类型”。

class MetaSingleton(type):
    instance = None
    def __call__(cls, *args, **kw):
        if cls.instance is None:
            cls.instance = super(MetaSingleton, cls).__call__(*args, **kw)
        return cls.instance

class Foo(object):
    __metaclass__ = MetaSingleton

a = Foo()
b = Foo()
assert a is b

Python 3 更新

在一个甲状腺中,有(目前)两个关键方法:

__prepare__ 允许您提供自定义地图(如 OrderedDict)作为名称空间使用,而类正在创建。

__new__ 负责最终类的实际创建/修改。

一个色彩色彩,不做任何东西 - 额外的金属类会喜欢:

class Meta(type):

    def __prepare__(metaclass, cls, bases):
        return dict()

    def __new__(metacls, cls, bases, clsdict):
        return super().__new__(metacls, cls, bases, clsdict)

一个简单的例子:

说你想要一些简单的验证代码在你的属性上运行 - 因为它必须总是一个 int 或 str. 没有一个 metaclass,你的类会看起来像:

class Person:
    weight = ValidateType('weight', int)
    age = ValidateType('age', int)
    name = ValidateType('name', str)

正如你可以看到的那样,你必须重复属性的名称两次,这使得类型与刺激的错误一起可能。

一个简单的甲状腺可以解决这个问题:

class Person(metaclass=Validator):
    weight = ValidateType(int)
    age = ValidateType(int)
    name = ValidateType(str)

class Validator(type):
    def __new__(metacls, cls, bases, clsdict):
        # search clsdict looking for ValidateType descriptors
        for name, attr in clsdict.items():
            if isinstance(attr, ValidateType):
                attr.name = name
                attr.attr = '_' + name
        # create final class and return it
        return super().__new__(metacls, cls, bases, clsdict)

一个样本运行:

p = Person()
p.weight = 9
print(p.weight)
p.weight = '9'

生产:

9
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "simple_meta.py", line 36, in <module>
    p.weight = '9'
  File "simple_meta.py", line 24, in __set__
    (self.name, self.type, value))
TypeError: weight must be of type(s) <class 'int'> (got '9')

---

注意:这个例子是简单的,它也可能已经完成了一个类装饰师,但假设一个真正的金属玻璃会做得更多。

class ValidateType:
    def __init__(self, type):
        self.name = None  # will be set by metaclass
        self.attr = None  # will be set by metaclass
        self.type = type
    def __get__(self, inst, cls):
        if inst is None:
            return self
        else:
            return inst.__dict__[self.attr]
    def __set__(self, inst, value):
        if not isinstance(value, self.type):
            raise TypeError('%s must be of type(s) %s (got %r)' %
                    (self.name, self.type, value))
        else:
            inst.__dict__[self.attr] = value

我看到一个有趣的使用案例在一个名为类用途的包中,它检查是否所有类变量在顶部案例格式(方便有统一逻辑的配置类),并检查是否没有例子级方法在课堂上。

除了发布的答案,我可以说,一个甲状腺可以定义一个类的行为,所以,你可以明确设置你的甲状腺,每当Python获得一个关键词类,然后它开始搜索甲状腺,如果它没有找到 - 默认甲状腺类型用于创建一个类的对象,使用 __metaclass__属性,你可以设置你的甲状腺类:

class MyClass:
   __metaclass__ = type
   # write here other method
   # write here one more method

print(MyClass.__metaclass__)

它将产生这样的产量:

class 'type'

当然,你可以创建自己的金属类来定义使用你的类创建的任何类的行为。

要做到这一点,您的默认金属类型类必须继承,因为这是主要金属类:

class MyMetaClass(type):
   __metaclass__ = type
   # you can write here any behaviour you want

class MyTestClass:
   __metaclass__ = MyMetaClass

Obj = MyTestClass()
print(Obj.__metaclass__)
print(MyMetaClass.__metaclass__)

产量将是:

class '__main__.MyMetaClass'
class 'type'
